Well Mr GFY19545 why did you dingbats decide to call them Australian Shepherds you turkey if they originated in the US? Plus what do you know about dogs other then acting like one? If they are so good why are they only found in the US. We laugh at people like you. You have probably never been further then the end of your street. But still have a big mouth and an empty space between your ears

Hi there again are you aware that no one in Australia has ever heard of this so called Australian Shepard. Why because it doesnt come from Australia. We all laugh when we here the name. It was your Yankies who formulated this new cross breed. There are only two Aussie dogs dear the Kelpie and the Cattle dog in Aussie. I own & train both types please read up on your dogs and I note your videos are all generic no matter what breed you are going on about why is that how many diff dogs you got
